Random Pensées

just come back to the photo of the house
and remember

it will all be worth it

oh, and rum...sounds wonderful
(please ignore the time i posted this comment...right now most of my hours run together. rum at 10:15 am, with a 4 week old in the house, sounds perfect)

Good luck with this grand adventure.

; )

Good luck. Hope everything goes as planned.

I feel your pain. Good luck with everything! Will keep the fingers and toes crossed that everything happens as it should.

Here's strong postive thoughts that everything is going to go exactly on schedule. Or, if not, because things will turn out for the better.

(((RP and Famille)))

Keep us posted :)

Happy Housewarming!!!!

Fingers crossed that all your problems be only little ones that you handle with good grace and humour. Good Luck.

RP, hope all goes well and that the only bumps and humps are the corrugations in the packing boxes.

Save me the boxes...I may be needing them soon.

Having been through the moving thing a time or twelve, you have my sympathies. The flipside, of course, is the thrill and excitement. All will be well. Eventually.

Rum.

And patience.

When your mortgage agent or bank says at the last minute, "Oh, by the way, we forget to mention we need X document, resist the temptation to scream and throw objects at them.
Seriously, good luck. Everything involved in buying a new house and moving is so stressful, but thankfully, when it's over, you'll have a beautiful home.

Id recommend consuming large quantities of rum prior to speaking with your mortgage agent or banker. Being in a drunken stupor should help curb the urges to strangle your mortgage agent and / or banker should they ask for documents at the last minute as Peggy suggests.

Then if the urges to strangle them to become overbearing you can at least say, whoops must have been the rum talking, so sorry.

I raise my apple juice and say Slante! my friend. It will be hectic, no doubt, but soooo worth it, in the long run.

Happy New Home, m'dear!

xoxo

Good luck with everything, I've got my fingers crossed for you.

Throw or give away as much as you can. It may feel weird at first, but then it becomes enlightening.

I'd say have fun but we did this almost three years ago and still don't have everything unpacked. Luckily we weren't moving far and the folks who bought our house had a little leeway to give us on the move. We had to be out 48 hours after the closing.

Good luck with the move!! I agree with Dr. Pants toss your stuff out until you think nothing will be left. Remember to love your family bunches during this time of duress.

Hope everything is going smoothly at the ol' folks' home. Is it the house you grew up in? Are you in your old room? Is the girlchild saying weird things all day?

If you've ever done this before...
Unfortunately all too recently. We went into temporary housing for 3 weeks to the cost of about 4K. You do what you have to do, you know? I'm glad you're able to stay with your parents. I hope that everything is going well with no hitches. I look forward to seeing you back on here soon. :) Lots of loving thoughts to you and the fam.

I can't believe how far behind I am in my blogreading.

I hope everything went smoothly!

(Yeah, I know it's already completed and I could just scan up a bit to see how things went but that is just too much like flipping to the last page of a mystery novel.)
